we just cannot stop anything right now. the suns won't have this all the time. amare making fadeaways???? c'mon now. we will adjust to him sooner or later tmac is carrying the offense fine. i just want us to compete on the defensive end to show we can stop this team. ******* amare was looking like the best player in the world there w/ scola guarding him.
Relax, Suns can't shoot 78% all game long. Even if we lose the game, this is not the end of the world. Suns are shooting the lights out. This won't happen on a 7-game series.
I honestly don't think we could have played much better in the 1st half. We shot a good percentage and only committed 2 TOs. There is no way we can defend their bigs. Our only chance to get into this game is to get either Amare or Shaq into foul trouble.
You know the thing is we aren't playing THAT bad, they are just hitting EVERYTHING. Now I know how other fans feel when Tmac just jumps up and hits nothing but net in your face....but they are doing it on every shot
you can't beat any team if you allow the mto shoot 78%. we can beat this team. adelman is just dumbfounded by keeping scola there. put in landry. he has more athleticfism.
We have to quit bailing them out by fouling them.......they are missing some shots, but we are fouling them on each and every miss. DD
Suns have the advangtage tonight...but come playoff time i would not mind facing them...both teams have equal amount of time to prepare and they woint shoot 76%.
we're obviously not happy with the way things are going but we just matched a team's point total for the 2nd quarter that is shooting 70 + percent. it's just a matter of time before they aren't so scorching and gettting whatever they want from the line (and they had better not attempt 40 freethrows (which they are on pace for)).
yes we are outmatched but that doesn't mean they can shoot 78%. they are just on fire. when amare makes contested fadeaways, that's their best day right there. but we need some athleticism at the 4 right now
the sad is they can. i remember a game earlier this year they had that was similar. it was just lights out shooting, all game long. HOPEFULLY this will not continue.
Where is Woods didn't we get him for games like this. Atleast he scored on a nice shot. Seem to me Scola has hit the rookie wall, he is playing some weak defense. Maybe Novak need to get some of his minutes tonight.
Amare is the only Sun to have missed more than one shot. Everybody else is either perfect or only has one miss.
I think our bigs did compete on the defensive end. They did all they could but the size and athleticism of Amare and Shaq is too much for this group. We need to drive to the hole relentlessly and get them into foul trouble. Unfortunately, that is obviously not our forte. A Bonzi-type could be helpful in this game.
